Top 3 places:
The Australian team is top with 4 wins in 5 matches, a total of 52 points as a draw, with 86.66 per cent. Pakistan are second with three wins from four matches, 36 points with one defeat and 75.0 per cent. Sri Lanka are third with 24 points from 66 matches with two wins and one defeat.
The next three places:
South Africa are fourth in the table with three wins out of 5 and 60.0 percent points. The Indian team is in fifth place with 65 points and 54.16 per cent in 10 matches with 5 wins, 3 losses and 2 draws. Teams from New Zealand, Bangladesh, West Indies and England are next in line.
Will India have a chance?
The Indian team has 8 Test matches remaining. The chance to advance to the finals will be bright only if they win all the matches. Only one of these matches can take place abroad. It was the last match of the five-match Test series in England to be postponed last year. Winning this match will be the challenge for India.
Otherwise, India’s chances of winning the second Test against Sri Lanka, the four domestic Tests against Australia and the final two Tests against Bangladesh are expected to be bright.
